Determinants of arterial gas embolism after scuba diving
Journal of Applied Physiology, 2012Scuba diving is associated with breathing gas at increased pressure, which often leads to tissue gas supersaturation during ascent and the formation of venous gas emboli (VGE). VGE crossover to systemic arteries (arterialization), mostly through the patent foramen ovale, has been implicated in various diving-related pathologies.

Arterial Gas Embolism and Decompression Sickness
Physiology, 2002Decompression sickness occurs when a sufficiently large gas phase forms within the tissues of the body after a reduction in ambient pressure. Arterial gas embolism occurs secondary to pulmonary barotrauma when gas is forced into the pulmonary vasculature.

Cerebral Arterial Gas Embolism During Upper Endoscopy
A & A Case Reports, 2015Arterial gas embolism can be caused by direct entry of gas into systemic arteries or indirectly by venous-to-arterial shunting. Although arterial gas embolism is rare, most documented cases are iatrogenic, resulting from the entry of gas during procedures that involve direct vascular cannulation or intracavitary air insufflation.

Gas embolism: an exceptional complication of radial arterial catheterization
Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2004Background: We report a rare complication of radial arterial catheterization in a 74‐year‐old man who had undergone retroperitoneal surgery for an infra‐renal aortic aneurysm. A right subclavian venous catheter and a right radial artery catheter were inserted for hemodynamic monitoring.Results: The patient suddenly went into a coma, with dyspnea and ...

Cerebral Artery Gas Embolism Following Navigational Bronchoscopy
Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 2018Introduction: Cerebral artery gas embolism (CAGE) is a rare but serious adverse event with potentially devastating neurologic sequelae. Bronchoscopy is a frequently performed procedure but with only a few reported cases of CAGE. Methods:

Elevation of Serum Creatine Kinase in Divers with Arterial Gas Embolization
New England Journal of Medicine, 1994Arterial gas embolism due to pulmonary barotrauma and the resultant cerebral gas embolism are catastrophic complications of diving. Previous studies have only rarely noted evidence of gas embolism to noncranial sites.Among 142 persons with diving-related injuries evaluated between January 1982 and July 1991, we identified 29 who had arterial gas ...

Quantitative electroencephalography in a swine model of cerebral arterial gas embolism
Clinical Neurophysiology, 2012Cerebral arterial gas embolism (CAGE) is a serious hazard in cardiovascular surgery and other invasive procedures. We used a swine model of CAGE to determine if quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) is a useful tool in diagnosis and prognostication of CAGE.0.05 ml/kg of air was injected into the ascending pharyngeal artery in 16 pigs. Intracranial

Cerebral vasoreactivity and arterial gas embolism.
Undersea biomedical research, 1986Compression regimens effect redistribution of entrapped cerebral arterial gas emboli by reducing embolus length and/or by increasing local perfusion pressure. Embolus length is related to embolus volume and vessel diameter. It has been assumed without evidence that cerebral arterial gas emboli induce local vasoparalysis and hence that the relevant ...
